OpenOffice.org
OpenOffice.org

OpenOffice.org 1.1beta is ready for immediate download. It is a stable beta but still has bugs. This release represents a significant advance of the application and incorporates the features and changes introduced with the developer builds of the last year. These include:
# Many new import/export formats such as PDF, Macromedia Flash, DocBook, several PDA Office file formats, flat XML and XHTML
# Support for Complex Text Layout (CTL) and languages such as Thai, Hindi, Arabic, Hebrew

My opinion

RH has done a nice job of making it act more like regular system software. It is in standard places, doesn't require an initial user setup phase, etc. That makes it real nice, especially in a multi-computer/multi-user environment.
